What are you Reading? Book Review…

Recently I have been receiving communications asking “what are you reading?” The answer to this question is not quite as simple as it sounds…you see we could reply that my co-blogger here (and more importantly she is my wife) is currently reading Going Rogue by Sarah Palin and is on page 277 (we will give you her review soon my review of the book has proven to be quite popular)…




Now…I separate my reading into a couple of categories. My prime reading which includes Factory Girls by Leslie T. Chang (on page 151)…




…and The Killing of Worlds by Scott Westerfeld (currently on page 55, this is the second book of the “Succession” series, I reviewed Book One: The Risen Empire not long ago)…




Then there are my slow read…books I slowly savor over extended periods of time such as The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer…




…I am also soaking up The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Volume 1 by Edward Gibbon (I have all of his volumes unabridged, I am on page 38)…




…I am also very slowly conquering The Rise and Fall of the British Empire by Lawrence James (page 11)…




…then there is Hirohito and the Making of Modern Japan by Herbert P. Bix (page 26)…




You may have noticed that several of these books are rather low in the page count and that is because I started other books earlier in the year and have completed them…

On My Purple Kindle I am reading Stones into Schools by Greg Mortenson (I’m on page 10, we reviewed his other book Three Cups of Tea)...




On my mp3 player I am listening to Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen…




…yet I will keep a few surprises up my sleeve…I am actually close to finishing several other books…and they and the others mentioned here shall ALL be reviewed here…

Do you have a book you want us to review?
